Whatever happened to good old THIN bleach?

Where do you shop. I see it all the time.

Morrison’s have thin bleach.

I agree with OP. I like thin bleach to soak my dishcloths in. Tescos no longer seem to stock it.

Aldi, Waitrose, Sainsbury’s and M & S all stock thin bleach.

I use laundry bleach for my whites.

I use Domestos spray bleach and have done for years..

Asda have thin bleach if you juts buy the essential range that is thin and cheap.

Why all the fuss, bleach is bleach, horrid stuff.
If its thick, surely you don't need so much, and can still dilute it.
I disinfect my kitchen cloths in Zoflora and wash regularly in the washing machine.

Very puerile I know, but on seeing ‘thick’ bleach, I still often wonder where the ‘intelligent’ bleach is.

🤣

On a similar subject I can’t find any disinfectant other than Dettol which is expensive.

Never heard of ‘thick’ bleach, I have to say. Bleach is bleach here. I use it in my teacups to get the tannin stains off. Then we drink it to save costs ( no ! only joking)

I buy Tesco’s own disinfectant Oreo and saw some in Aldi a couple of weeks ago.

We do the same- some of our lovely National Trust mugs do seem to stain easily, so a bit of 'thin' bleach and water, then in the diswasher.

Lucky that in France I can buy thin bleach in refill pouches, to save on plastic use. Same for washing liquid, softener, handwash, shower wash, etc, etc.

Waitrose may, theoretically stock thin bleach, but none of my local branches stock it.

We visit France regularly and it is still available everywhere there and I always return with several large bottles in the back of the car.

I have bought and used bleach “tablets” Get them on Amazon

Some so called thick bleaches are not especially thick, I’ve found - usually the cheaper own brands (tho this can vary). I’ve bought bleach in B & M and The range labelled as thick bleach to find it not to be thick at all.

I know exactly what you mean. Our Sainsbury’s hasn’t stocked it for a long time - used to come in a fat, whitish- coloured bottle and was perfect for stained pots etc as many have mentioned as well as soaking dishcloths. All I can find is toilet bleach with the narrow neck which is much too thick for my purposes.

I just use thick bleach can’t see what’s the difference is they both beach things, thick or thin they work the same

All the supermarkets have thin bleach. Anyway if that's the most you have to gripe about, lucky you. Get a grip.

I would like to know why thick bleach isn’t thick anymore, they have shoved the prices up & it’s crap!
Just use this thick-thin stuff to whiten my tea towels & cloths in cold water (hot water turns cottons yellow)

I don't use it either, it's too easy to end up with bleached splashes on fabrics or whatever. And it doesn't work on limescale, just makes it white. It's banned from our house.

I’ve got a couple of bottles of thin bleach , waiting to be poured on to the weeds on my drive !

I use Milton sterilising fluid to soak washclothes and clean worksurfaces.
